That must've been awful.

(What the f**k is he talking about?)

Egregious mispronunciations on Only Connect. In this case, in Series 12, Episode 13, the word Garuda was grossly mispronounced. A quiz presenter's credibility is dented when pronunciations are mangled. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWCZToBY5ag at 8.40 to hear it for yourself.

Hope that clears things up.

And she should have known better having presented the OED's Balderdash and Piffle on'telly awhile back.

I realised that's what you meant but what is Garuda and how or why would anyone know?

It's what they do on quizzes Chappers..................it's not Pointless.
